Unable to open the 533 Ez-kit session.

Started by sriram2480 ●August 27, 2003
Hi all
I have purchased a BF533 Evaluation kit.I have connected the kit to
the PC through the USB. I have done everything said in the manual.
The kit seems to be properly communicating because according to the
manual its been said that the if yellow light is on LED11 then the
kit is properly working.Then when I try to open a session for EZ-KIt
i get as follows
"An error has occured while trying to connect to the target.Please
verify target components have been properly installed andif trying
to conncet to physical hardware,that the appropiate target
connection has been made.
Error code:0x80004005.
Error description:Unspecified error."
I get "unable to halt the processor","could not halt after reset"
on the console.

The other question is will the LED 4,,6,7,8,9 always be blinking on
the board.

Thank U
Regards
Sriram

The first step is to make sure your driver is working (the EZ kit
takes a special USB driver) by looking at your computer's device
driver list. You should see an entry for the EZ Kit under "DSP
Emulators" (My OS is Windows XP) If not there, you may need to
install the drivers. My EZ Kit had very poor docs for doing this
and I've forgotten what I did, so you might have to call your AD rep
or visit the website.

If your driver is working, look at the intial configuration
(session) settings. You may have to play around with those a
little.

Hope this helps,
Glenn Dixon

Oh--and your description of the LED flashes indicates your hardware
is working. On bootup the EZ kit loads and executes a small program
that flashes those LEDs.

I second to what Glenn recommends, on checking the device driver list etc.
 
I am not a USB expert, so not sure of the caveats, but I have seen (using Windows 2000), that any time I have tried to power cycle the board, and restart it , IDE does'nt come up and gives the similar error messages as you mentioned, which after a while of frustration only leads to restarting the computer...
 
My workaround has been, if you want to power off the ezkit , disable the driver in your device driver list, and then power off, that way when you repower your board, enable the driver and then try to bring up the IDE things work fine....
 
Just  my 2 cents..
